CORRUPTION

Analysis has Kenya into its elements,
Crumbled into dust on corruption,
Leaders play upon words,
Well-known coiners of words,
So-and-so, what's his name?
Great neologists like great philosophers,
The country is rotten as cheese,
It is drabbled in the mud,
The ills that flesh is heir to us Kenyans,
Famous of galloping consumption,
Kenya is a matyr to the disease,
The lame and the blind,
Kenya on the world sick list,
We are in declining health,
Beyond hope, on the down grade,
Second-rated and worse for wear,
They know themselves best,
Who have dealt a blow on our "Mama Land",
Rather is it fit for the waste paper basket?
The men on the wheel have made it out of repair,
The power behind the throne are far gone,
It takes nodding to its fall,
Heads i win, tails you lose,
The husband plays with marked cards,
We are lost to shame and dead to honor,
Lost to virtue without excuse,
Simply because they deviated from the line of duty,
And now we re,"rightly being served"!



MY LOVE, ITS ABSURD!

Pain is inevitable but suffering is optional,
Love is unconditional while relationships very much conditional,
You gave me the floor to declare my position,
But today you are trying to forget someone you love,
Quite impossible as trying to remember someone you never knew,
Baby, to die, our love needs a natural death,
No wonder it frantically fights in its endless breathe,
What makes you think you lose by loving?
You always lost by holding back,
You see me and you smile,
That's my loving taking you an extra mile,
Now you want to let me go,
To dedicate to holding together another institution you have no control of,
What a dramatic irony,
Trying to rob Peter to pay Paul,
You made this bed, lay in it,
Remember us and you won't quit,
Success is what we got right here,
You are a remarkable man, a blessing to the world,
My sweetest chapter,
I read it and undergo a rebirth,
My soul reminisces the normalcy in your lines,
Treading on love's enchanted ground,
Making its possibility sound,
This self-inflicted death row is just a state o mind,
Love being torn by miles and not by choice is all you find,
There is no straight line to a dream,
"i can't do it" never yet accomplished anything,
"i will try" has performed miracles,
You accepted the love you know you deserve,
You are a single candle,
Whose life will not be shortened by lighting thousands of candles,
Happiness and love never decreased by being shared,
Be a persistent winner not discouraged by a problem but challenged by it,
My heart stands here as cheerless as a grave,
It experiences emotional unrest,
But i hold in it tough love,
By your side is where it rocks best,
In this age of realism,
Baby, i legally love you,
And you honestly know it,
You passionately love all of this,
The time is now,
Live on hope and not remembrance,
And that my love is choosing excellence,
So am not going to mourn nor am i going to grieve,
This you call break up is timely,
It will be back to natural hair, after removing the weave.




I WILL WAIT FOR YOU MY LOVE

Baby i will age waiting for you,
I will welcome Grey hairs waiting for you,

Baby judgment day will find me waiting for you,
They will blow the trumpet as i wait for you,

And that is only if death won't find me waiting for you,
Cause the Angel of death will surely find me waiting for you,

It will never get late waiting for you,
It just gets early waiting for you,

God is camping with me as i wait for you,
He sent for you as we waited for you,

And He assured me that you are on your way as i wait for you,
I will wait for you.

MY FAITH

As i hold this pen,
I know that I'll have faith now and then,
For many ,may mistake me for being insane,
But its all in the name of faith as i move along this lane,

Faith, a word so simple,
Yet gives one time that is ample,
In this tough time i want it to serve as a sample,
As it is all in the name of uniting this temple,

Victory is what we should all aim for,
In search for the key to re-open this door,
And walk plainly on its floor,
But seek its merit even more,

For as long as i shall breathe and live,
I ask that serenity is part of what He will give,
All these problems to relieve,
And as each day passes, the more in faith I believe.

NEVER QUESTION LOVE

Ordeals create themselves in thee,
But it never departs me,
Its reminiscence is aside me, never away,
Dilemmas are are left swimming with a bay,

We overcrowd each other and that is silly,
But who dares questions two in love really?
Just a split second let me be insane,
For you do not have a clue on what strolls on love's lane,

Let your essence say, "i do" to my soul,
And as one we can enjoy it all,
This path where the leaves sing with us,
Birds utter their piece of music in mass,

No one has recognized its origins,
Nor have scientists known of its existence in the genes,
Let us not be inquisitive,
A sensitive peril for personality, LOVE is just being normative.

WHAT GOES AROUND COMES AROUND

Pull the wool over my eyes today and you disregard tomorrow,
I say it, as it is for i know what i now see,
You are a drought and vice won't aid you at this hour,
Overlook your sum and substance and lessons await you.

You disappoint my soul for you had it,
One stare in your eyes and i trusted you fully,
Visage worth reclined and you too duped me,
I need age to get this in my system.

They say it happens to the best of us,
And my Mona Lisa half smile calms my nerves,
Life is like a crowd, unstructured and unpredictable,
I never reflected you mistook my virtue for idiocy.

Let me enlighten you now
Every dog has its day for sure not just somehow,
The banana has been peeled off and it has a fruit,
Your services are no longer needed, you may see yourself out!

TO MY HEART’S CONTENT

You are a ray of comfort,
Making me breathe so easily,
You are a refreshment,
Laying the flattering unction to my soul,
You are my unalloyed happiness,
Treading on enchanted ground,
You make my heart leap with joy,
Enjoying the day is long,
You are a transport of delight,
Leaving me in a blissful state,
You make me bask in the sunshine,
Entering into the spirit of fruition,
You make me thrice happy always,
Experiencing comfort, pleasure and ecstasy,
You are a river flowing with milk and honey,
Warming the cockles of the heart,
You are the roses in May,
Meeting my wishes and hitting my fancies.
